In Memory of Kiara Echaniz: Funeral Expenses
Donation protected
Dear Friends,
My name is Peter Massih and Kiara is my fiance's little sister.
As many of you may know, the community has been deeply saddened about the tragic loss of Kiara Elise Echaniz on Friday, May 12th of this year. Kiara was in the 9th grade at ACS and was a member of the student council. She had dreams of attending college and either becoming a Nurse Practitioner, where she could use her passion of helping those in need, or Software Engineering, formed from a new excitement for coding.
She was the most selfless, loyal and kind person we have ever known.
Despite all having the most beautiful soul and so much going for her, she lost a battle with her mental health and ended her life. Kiara left behind her Mother, Father, Brother and Sister. She was wholeheartedly loved and her loss is irreplaceable as the baby in her family. As they continue to mourn the tragic loss of their daughter and sister, they are organizing two memorial services in both Texas and Belgium for their friends and family. With such short notice: flight costs, last minute accommodations, and the arrangement of memorial services have become unexpected costs during this time. We would like to ask you for your support during this challenging period.
All donations received will go towards covering the expenses associated with the costs of the two memorial services, as well as travel and lodging accommodations for the family. Any additional donations will go towards the Jed Foundation. The Jed Foundation is a non-profit organization that protects emotional health and prevents suicide for teens and young adults in the United States.
If you would like to attend either memorial service for Kiara, please reach out to the family.
Thank you very much for your generosity and support.
Sincerely,
Peter Massih
